pearl harbor

     The attack on Pearl Harbor, also known as the Battle of Pearl Harbor, the Hawaii Operation or Operation AI by the Japanese Imperial General Headquarters, and Operation Z during planning, was a surprise. The U.S. Navy commemorates the 75th anniversary of the attack on Pearl Harbor Wednesday.he USA TODAY Network is remembering the 75th anniversary of the devastating attack on Pearl Harbor with exclusive essays, personal recollections from survivors, historical photos and virtual reality video. See our complete coverage here. December seventh, 1941: the surprise was complete. The attacking planes came in two waves; the first hit its target at 7:53 AM, the second at 8:55. By 9:55 it was all over. By 1:00 PM the carriers that launched the planes from 274 miles off the coast of Oahu were heading back to Japan. Behind them they left chaos, 2,403 dead, 188 destroyed planes and a crippled Pacific Fleet that included 8 damaged or destroyed battleships. In one stroke the Japanese action silenced the debate that had divided Americans ever since the German defeat of France left England alone in the fight against the Nazi terror.
     Although stunned by the attack at Pearl Harbor, the Pacific Fleet's aircraft carriers, submarines and, most importantly, its fuel oil storage facilities emerged unscathed. These assets formed the foundation for the American response that led to victory at the Battle of Midway the following June and ultimately to the total destruction of the Japanese Empire four years later.  As a wave of shock surged from Pearl Harbor’s burning waters, the nation stood in awe of the destruction wrought by the Imperial Japanese Navy on the U.S. Pacific Fleet. “The in credulousness of it all still gives each new announcement of the Pearl Harbor attack the unreality of a fairy tale,” a young naval aviator stationed in Virginia wrote just hours after the attack. “How could they have been so mad?… If the reports I’ve heard today are true, the Japanese have performed the impossible, have carried out one of the most daring and successful raids in all history.

A shooting stance

A San Diego suburb braced for more protests Wednesday after the shooting death of a black man by police who was reportedly acting erratically and assumed what officers called a "shooting stance" in the encounter.Officers were called around 2 p.m. PT Tuesday to the Broadway Village Shopping Center in El Cajon, California about 15 miles northeast of San Diego, after hearing reports of an uncooperative person walking into traffic. El Cajon Police Chief Jeff Davis said at a news conference: "At one point the male rapidly drew an object from his front pants pocket placed both hands together on it and extended it rapidly towards the officer taking what appeared to be a shooting stance, putting the object in the officer's face.At this time one of the officers discharged his Taser in an effort to subdue the subject. Simultaneously the officer who had the object pointed at him discharged his firearm, striking the male.Another protest was scheduled for 9 a.m. PT at the El Cajon Police headquarters that would feature speakers from local churches. 

He did not say what the object was but acknowledged it was not a weapon. Davis said investigators were reviewing the video and other video recovered from the scene, which so far coincided with the officers' statements.Authorities said officers provided first aid on the scene and took the man to a local hospital, where he was pronounced dead.Officers described him as an African American in his 30s. The man was named by some media as Alfred Olango, 30. The shooting incident comes days after protests broke out in Charlotte, N.C., and Tulsa, Okla.

MH17 came from Russia

They also narrowed down the area it was fired from to a field in territory controlled by Russian-backed rebels.

All 298 people on board the Boeing 777 died when it broke apart in mid-air flying from Amsterdam to Kuala Lump.

Russia says the conclusions are "extremely political" and its Burk missiles "never shot down" the plane.

"Based on the criminal investigation, we have concluded that flight MH17 was downed by a Burk missile of the series 9M83 that came from the territory of the Russian Federation," chief Dutch police investigator Wilbert Pauline said in a news conference on Thursday.The missile launcher was later taken back to Russia.

An inquiry by the Dutch Safety Board last year found that a Russian-made Burk missile hit the plane but did not say where it was fired from.
But Russia has rejected the conclusions, calling them "extremely political". This is of course a provocative statement... it has nothing to do with investigating the tragedy that took away the lives of so many people Prosecutors have narrowed the missile launch site down to a specific field near the village of Pervomaiskyi, which was then in rebel hands.here is a need to establish who gave the order to move the missile launcher into eastern Ukraine, and where the order for it to be fired.

Migrants die under a boat

 The  bodies of 148 people had been pulled from the waters off the Egyptian coast by Friday, three days after a boat carrying hundreds of migrants capsized in the Mediterranean while attempting to head to Europe. Authorities have struggled to give accurate figures for the number of people on board the capsized vessel. Egyptian coast guard and rescue workers Thursday bring ashore bodies recovered from a Europe-bound boat that capsized off Egypt’s Mediterranean coast, in Rosetta.This events happened on Wednesday earlier that day. Thousands of illegal migrants have made the dangerous sea voyage in recent years, fleeing war and poverty in the Middle East and elsewhere. 

Fishermen said that they had difficulty collecting the badly decomposed bodies, with one saying, “we didn’t know how to pull them out.The intense smell of decay filled the air and many covered their faces with masks. Survivors and relatives told the AP earlier that the boat sank around 5:30 a.m. on Wednesday, and that it took coast guards around six hours to come to the rescue. . Of the 150 people rescued.Those are the ones who drowned first, most probably stuck, and their bodies might not be retrieved anytime soon,” he said, adding, “those we found are the ones liberated from the boat.

Hurricane Lester

Hurricane Lester

 Hurricane Lester was the first Pacific tropical cyclone to enter the United States as a tropical storm since 1967.Hurricane Lester was the fifteenth tropical cyclone.The hurricane made its closest approach to land on October 18.Lester's winds increased to 100 mph 160 km/h and the storm made its closest approach to land on October 18, about 70 miles.Lester destroyed a bridge which affected transportation for about 1,000 people. Hurricane Lester happened in August 20,1992 -August 24,1992.  The remnants of Lester also produced moderate rainfall and minor flooding across southern California, Colorado, Arizona and New Mexico. 

If was in that day when that hurricane happened i would help people. I wish that this hurricane Lester never happened. The reason why i wish it didn't happened is because it killed 1,000 people that day it happened.Hurricane Lester took a slight jog to the west. hurricane was the fifteenth tropical cyclone.
